Law Enforcement Torch Run (NSW) for Special Olympics

Law Enforcement Torch Run is a worldwide organisation committed to raising awareness and funds for Special Olympics

A torch run is a team event comprising police officers, special athletes and occasionally members of the public held to celebrate a State or National Special Olympics Sporting Competition. The pace is slow and steady with many members of the team getting the opportunity to carry thr Flame of Hope at some point. It is rare for the Torch Run to exceed 3 kilometres in distance.

We wrapped up a busy Polar Plunge Season yesterday at the Billabong Parklands, Campbelltown. 57 Days since our first plunge at Continental Pool, Wollongong - 12 Plunge events - 184 Teams - 1438 Registered Plungers - and over $441,000 raised in New South Wales and the ACT.

WOW!

Thanks go out to the volunteers who assisted at each of the plunges, to the Special Olympics clubs who saw the opportunity and grabbed it and to the many people who took the plunge to support the athletes of Special Olympics or donated to individuals or teams taking part.

Patrick is heading off for a rest, but we think he'll be back when we come back and do some more plunging in 2027.

THANK YOU
